Health Educ finals Flashcards
Factors which influenced the growth of patient education from the mid-1800s through the turn of the 20th century
- Emergence of nursing and other health professions
- Technological developments
- Emphasis on patient-caregiver relationships
- Spread of tuberculosis and other communicable diseases
- Growing of interest in the welfare of mothers and children
The purpose of this is to increase the competence and confidence of clients for self-management and increase the responsibility and independence of clients for self-care
Patient Education
The founder of modern nursing. Developed the first school of nursing.

Nurse Practitioner
— A person shall be deemed to be practicing nursing
within the meaning of this Act when he/she singly or in
collaboration with another, initiates and performs
nursing services to individuals, families and
communities in any health care setting. It includes, but
not limited to, nursing care during conception, labor,
delivery, infancy, childhood, toddler, pre-school, school
age, adolescence, adulthood and old age. As
independent practitioners, nurses are primarily
responsible for the promotion of health and prevention
of illness. As members of the health team, nurses shall
collaborate with other health care providers for the
curative, preventive, and rehabilitative aspects of care,
restoration of health, alleviation of suffering, and when
recovery is not possible, towards a peaceful death
RA 9173, Article 6, Section 28
Aims of Nursing
- To promote health
- To prevent illness
- To restore health
- To facilitate coping with disability or death
The range of personal, social, economic and environmental factors which determine the health status of individuals or populations
Determinants of Health
Is the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve their health
Health promotion
Comprises of consciously constructed opportunities for learning involving some form of communication designed to improve health literacy, including improving knowledge, and developing life skills which are conducive to individual and community health
Health Education
Represents the cognitive and social skills which determine the motivation and ability of individuals to gain access to, understand and use information in ways which promote and maintain good health
Health literacy
Any activity undertaken by an individual, regardless of actual or perceived health status, for the purpose of promoting, protecting or maintaining health, whether, or not such behavior is objectively effective towards that end
Health behavior
Behaviors associated with increased susceptibility to a specific cause of ill-health
Risk behavior
Social, economic or biological status, behaviors or environments which are associated with or cause increased susceptibility to a specific disease, ill health, or injury
Risk factors
A description and/or measurement of the health of an individual or population at a particular point in time against identifiable standards, usually by reference to health indicators
Health status
A change in the health status of an individual, group or population which is attributable to a planned intervention or series of interventions, regardless of whether such an intervention was intended to change health status
Health Outcome
Equity means fairness. Equity in health means that people’s needs guide the distribution of opportunities for well-being
Equity in health
Identify the Orientation of Learning:
Purpose of learning is the produce behavioral change in desired direction
Behaviorist
Identify the Orientation of Learning:
To develop capacity and skills to learn better
Cognitivist
Identify the Orientation of Learning:
To become self-actualized, mature, autonomous
Humanist
Identify the Orientation of Learning:
To learn new roles and behaviors
Social Cognitive

To construct knowledge
Constructivist
Coherent framework of integrated constructs and principles that describe, explain or predict how people learn
Learning Theory
- Stimulus - response Theory (THORNDIKE)
- Conditioned Response (PAVLOV)
- Operant Conditioning (SKINNER)
Behaviorism theories
Using animals in controlled experiments, Thorndike noted that through repeated trail-and-error learning
Thorndike’s S-R theory of learning Connectionism
Identify the three laws of learning:
States that learners will acquire and remember responses that lead to satisfying aftereffects
Law of Effect
Identify the three laws of learning:
Asserts that the repetition of a meaningful connection results in substantial learning
Law of Exercise
Identify the three laws of learning:
Notes that if the organism is ready for the connection. learning is enhanced, and if it is not, learning is inhibited
Law of Readiness
- Also termed association learning, classical conditioning, pavlovian conditioning
- Emphasizes the importance of stimulus conditions and the association formed in the learning process
Respondent Conditioning
Tendency of initial learning experience to be easily applied to other similar stimuli
Stimulus Generalization
With more varied experiences, individuals learn to differentiate among similar stimuli
Discrimination Learning
A response may appear to be extinguished, it may recover and reappear at any time
Spontaneous Recovery
Focuses on the behavior of the organism and reinforcement that occurs after the response
Operant Conditioning
Identify the method of increasing probability of response:
Application of a pleasant stimulus
Positive Reinforcement
Identify the method of increasing probability of response:
A pleasant stimulus is applied following an organism’s response
Reward Conditioning
Identify the method of increasing probability of response:
Removal of an aversive or unpleasant stimulus
Negative reinforcement
Identify the method of increasing probability of response:
As an aversive stimulus is applied, the organism makes a response that causes the unpleasant stimulus to cease
Escape conditioning
Identify the method of increasing probability of response:
An aversive stimulus is anticipated by the organism, which makes a response to avoid the unpleasant event
Avoidance conditioning
Identify the method of decreasing the probability of response:
An organism’s conditioned response is not followed by any kind of reinforcement
Nonreinforcement
Identify the method of increasing probability of response:
Following a response, an aversive stimulus is applied that the organism cannot escape or avoid
Punishment
Mental processes involved in thinking, perceiving, problem solving and remembering. Thinking and reasoning play a major part in how people learn
Cognitive Theories of Learning
Emphasizes to view the whole rather than looking at small parts that make up the whole
Gestalt learning
A cognitive perspective that emphasizes thinking processes: thought, reasoning, the way information is encountered and stored, and memory functioning
Information processing
Psychological organization is directed toward simplicity, equilibrium, and regularity
Principles in Gestalt learning
Information processing model of memory
Stage 1 Attention (External Processes)
Stage 2 Processing (Internal Processes)
Stag 3 Memory Storage (Internal Processes)
Stage 4 Action (External Processes)
Is a particularly helpful for assessing problems in acquiring, remembering, and recalling information
The information-processing perspective
Focused on people’s potential, believing that humans strive to reach the possible level of achievement
Humanistic Learning
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs
The art and science of helping adults learn
Andragogy
Learning is largely an information processing activity in which information about the structure of behavior and about environmental events is transformed into symbolic representations that serves as guides for actions
Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory
Basically, a stance that maintains that learning is a process of constructing meaning; it is how people make sense of their experience
Constructivism
Emphasized the significance of language, social interaction, and adult guidance in the learning process
Lev Vygotsky’s Sociocultural Theory
One of the most widely used conceptual
frameworks in health behavior research, both to
explain change and maintenance of health-
related behaviors and as a guiding framework
for health behavior interventions.
